What makes this English Thesaurus unique?
• The fact that you may enter set phrases, not only single terms, as valid entries.
• The fact that you may obtain synonyms of parts of speech usually not included in other thesauri, such as exclamations, prepositional phrases and idiomatic verbs. Even proverbs have their synonyms!
• Vast database; no less than 1,767,000+ synonyms and 361,000+ antonyms.
• 349,000+ English words and 25,000+ pictures.
• Meaning Descriptors to help distinguish between the different word meanings.
• Strict coherence of each synonym set. Transitive verbs yield only transitive synonyms. Intransitive verbs yield intransitive synonyms. Meanings and connotations of words are never mixed.
• Phonetic transcription following IPA standards in American and British English.
• Sync your favorites among your devices with Dropbox
• You may now enter plurals as valid entries.
• Customize using available themes, background color, and font.
• Fuzzy Search: Detects misspelled words and offers close suggestions.
* Please note this is a Thesaurus and therefore includes only English synonyms, no translations nor verb conjugations. Our General Reference Dictionary includes all those.

Word Magic Software Team create high-quality apps; this thesaurus is no exception. It’s simple to look up any word to find synonyms. Then, click on any of them to look up THAT word—making it incredibly useful to find just the shade of meaning you need. Note that all this works offline, as well. A necessity for all writers!
Lacking

While for basic it is fine. Anything more sophisticated then you run into trouble. Look up “ideology” for instance you will get some vague terms such “philosophy”, but not real interchangeable synonym like perhaps “ belief structure”.
Love it!!!!!!

I have been using this app almost since it’s beginning. I have relied on it faithfully. I use it frequently. No crash issues ever. Frequent updates & rarely have I ever had an issue in my research where I have not been able to conclude it using this app. I reached out to developers in the past and they are very professional & courtious.
Great because it works off-line

I had a thesaurus program that was OK, but I’m in a situation many times I eat on an airplane or a cruise ship where I need a thesaurus and I don’t have access to the Internet. This one has a lot of resources/words and works without the Internet. It was worth every penny.

A good thesaurus is a must have for anyone in the business world when half their day is spent emailing, writing proposals and reports, etc... After getting this one, I deleted the others from my phone. This one never fails me.
Liked at first, then...

...realized how limited this app’s “vocabulary” really is, so much in fact that I got off my lazy butt and wrote this review. For example, I look up a word and only get 3-4 synonyms. This has been my luck 60% of the time. Flipping disappointed.
Fast and Useful

This is a clean, well-designed app that exceeds the speed and level of support that you get from simply searching the web for word alternatives.
